SPACEHAB REPORTS
FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2007
Houston, Texas, September 19, 2007 –
SPACEHAB, Incorporated (NASDAQ/NMS: SPAB), a leading provider of commercial
space services, today announced financial results for its fourth
quarter and fiscal year 2007 ended June 30, 2007.
Fourth Quarter Results
SPACEHAB posted a fourth quarter fiscal 2007 net loss of $13.2 million,
or $1.02 per share, on revenue of $12.8 million compared with a fourth
quarter fiscal 2006 net income of $48,000, or $0.00 per share, on revenue
of $14.6 million. Included in the fourth quarter's results was a non-cash
charge of $14.2 million as the Company wrote down the book value of
one of its two pressurized space shuttle modules, and other module
related assets. The Company had previously written down the other module
during fiscal year 2006. NASA has not designated use of the Company's
modules, which have flown on 23 space shuttle missions since 1993,
on any of the remaining space shuttle flights.
During the quarter, the Company announced the award of a $35 million
indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for its Astrotech
Space Operations subsidiary, supplying payload processing services
for the U.S. Government at the Vandenberg Air Force Base (VAFB) in
California. "We were especially pleased when Astrotech was subsequently
awarded the first mission contract to support the Ocean Surface Topography
Mission under the IDIQ," said SPACEHAB President, Jim Royston. "We're
currently awaiting a determination from our customer on the next two
mission competes recently submitted under the $35 million contract
award," he said.
Year End Results
SPACEHAB's net loss for fiscal 2007 was $16.3 million, or $1.26 per
share, on revenue of $52.8 million compared to a net loss of $12.4
million, or $0.97 per share, on revenue of $50.7 million for the prior
fiscal year. Year end results include a non-cash charge of $14.2 million
as the Company wrote down the book value of one of its two pressurized
space shuttle modules.
In April 2007, SPACEHAB announced that it had received notification
from NASDAQ that the Company had until October 3, 2007 to regain compliance
with NASDAQ's $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement. Should
SPACEHAB fail to remedy the bid price deficiency by the established
deadline, NASDAQ is expected to notify the Company that its securities
will be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company will have
the right to appeal such determination.
Liquidity
SPACEHAB's cash and restricted cash was approximately $16.0 million
as of June 30, 2007. Included in the cash balance is $3.1 million for
in-flight insurance on STS-118 that was paid in July 2007. Additionally,
$6.3 million is restricted cash for a construction contract with a
government customer to expand payload processing facilities at the
Company's Vandenberg Air Force Base location. Current liabilities increased
to $31.5 million at June 30, 2007 compared to $17.9 million at June
30, 2006 due primarily to $10.3 million of the Company's bonds which
mature in October 2007. As of year end, SPACEHAB carried a contract
backlog of $26.8 million, $3.3 million of which represents remaining
revenue on STS-118.
Update of Ongoing Operations
Throughout the fourth quarter, SPACEHAB continued final preparations
for the Company's twenty-third mission in support of the Space Shuttle
Program, culminating in the successful STS-118 International Space
Station (ISS) assembly and resupply mission launched on August 8, 2007.
SPACEHAB's External Stowage Platform 3 (ESP3), a spare parts facility
now permanently attached to the station, and Logistics Single Module
took up nearly two-thirds of Endeavour's cargo bay during
this, the Company's last scheduled space shuttle mission. The SPACEHAB
team is currently supporting deintegration activities for its payload
customers.
In addition to the new contracts at VAFB, Astrotech commenced major
construction upgrades at that location, in support of the U.S. Government,
to furnish 5-meter fairing accommodations by September 2009. Affecting
Astrotech's Long Beach operation, Sea Launch experienced an explosion
in January 2007 during spacecraft liftoff resulting in the loss of
a satellite and damage to the floating launch platform, stalling satellite
processing operations for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year
2007. A full inspection, evaluation, and repair of the damage ensued
and preliminary reports indicate that Sea Launch will return to flight
in October 2007.
Continued exceptional customer evaluations on SPACEHAB's Government
Services' Program Integration and Control (PI&C) contract led to
additional configuration and data management work for the Company,
in support of NASA's Constellation Program, during fiscal year 2007.
Looking to expand this support capability to both NASA's Constellation
and Orion programs on a long-term basis, SPACEHAB is responding to
two NASA solicitations, the Orion Project Integration Contract and
Constellation Program Support Contract, subsequent to quarter end.
Also subsequent to quarter end, the Company announced the commencement
of an Exchange Offer for any and all of its outstanding 8% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due 2007 (the "Junior Notes" ) and any and
all of its outstanding 5.5% Senior Convertible Notes due 2010 (the "Senior
Notes" ) for disclosed shares of preferred and common stock. The
exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October
1, 2007, unless the exchange offer is extended or terminated.
